Where are they Now? The MLC School Careers Department provides multiple opportunities for students to stay informed about new and exciting courses at University. In addition to the annual Careers and Tertiary Expo they hold a series of Career Conversations where students can hear from inspiring young women who have successfully forged careers in a variety of areas. The annual Study Abroad Evening is another opportunity where MLC School Old Girls studying overseas, return to school and provide insight into why they chose to study abroad. As indicated in the Destination Survey, this event has influenced a number of students to apply to overseas institutions, as well as interstate universities. There has also been a trend for students to choose a greater variety of courses as well as combined degrees which allow more flexibility and a broader skillset.

‘With help from the Careers Department I was able to figure out which course would work best for me and determine what that course would actually be like.’ Stephanie Dimovski (2017) 1
